I'm fundraising for...

🌊 I Am Not Alone — and neither are you.

In 2026, I’ll be swimming two ocean ultra marathons — U24K in February and Palm to Shelly 26K in April — as part of my project “I Am Not Alone.”

This journey connects ocean swimming with mental health — reminding us that, like the ocean, life can be unpredictable and deep, but we’re stronger when we swim together.

I’m raising funds for ReachOut Australia, the leading online mental health service supporting young people through tough times.
Every donation helps ReachOut provide a safe space for young people to connect, open up, and find support when they need it most.

💙 Sponsor my swims and help me remind every young person: I Am Not Alone — and neither are you.

I am not alone - ultra marathon and mental health

Tuesday 28th Oct

🌊 I Am Not Alone — and neither are they.

In 2026, I’ll be taking on two massive ocean ultra marathons:
🏊‍♂️ U24K in February
🏊‍♂️ Palm to Shelly 26K in April

These swims are part of my ongoing project, “I Am Not Alone” — a movement that connects ocean swimming with mental health awareness. Because just like the ocean, life can be unpredictable, deep, and overwhelming at times. But when we swim together, when we look out for one another, we find strength in connection.

I’m fundraising for ReachOut Australia, the leading online mental health service supporting young people through tough times.
ReachOut provides a safe space where young people can talk openly, connect with others who understand, and find the tools they need to manage whatever they’re facing.

Every stroke I take represents the fight to stay afloat — for me, for my community, and for every young person who needs to know they’re not alone in their struggle.

💙 Your support matters.
By sponsoring my swims, you’ll help ReachOut continue giving young Australians the hope, connection, and support they deserve.

Together, let’s remind every young person out there: I Am Not Alone — and neither are you.
